Sailing in Croatia, the Best Holiday Idea for 2021

With everything that has been happening in the world for the last year, a sailing holiday in Croatia may just be the best holiday idea for 2021. But don’t just take our word for it, Croatia recently featured as one of Europe’s Top 5 Countries to Visit in Europe in 2021. The Telegraph also wrote 20 Reasons Croatia is the Ultimate Summer Destination in 2021.

So, here are a few reasons we think sailing in Croatia is the best holiday idea for 2021.

Incredible Nature and Scenery

For many who live in cities, lockdown meant being stuck indoors with little or no access to nature. Getting out in nature is not or should not be a luxury, it is necessary for our well-being. A sailing holiday in Croatia means spending 7 days (or more) completely immersed in nature. Let the Adriatic soothe your soul, the stunning coastline inspire you or for the active – hike for spectacular views. The incredible abundance of nature in Croatia has been praised the world over; from Nature Parks to thriving underwater worlds and the glistening Adriatic. The incredible nature and scenery in Croatia will relax, restore and reinspire you – and isn’t that precisely what a holiday is for?

Avoid the Crowds

A sailing holiday is the perfect way to avoid the crowds. It is more than a year since the world went into lockdown, and we are still in the grips of a global pandemic. Travel is possible in Croatia (with proof of vaccination or a negative Covid test), though we understand safety is still very much at the forefront of everyone’s mind. A yacht charter allows you to limit your exposure to crowds. On your yacht, it is just you and your family or friends for the week. Spend nights on the anchor to enjoy peace and privacy. Even if you stay in marinas and ports, you are still only staying with your ‘bubble’.Choose lesser-known destinations on your sailing itinerary to avoid crowds even further.

Relax, Be Active or Both

The beauty of a sailing holiday in Croatia is that you can spend a week simply relaxing, getting active or doing a combination of both. Picture days spent anchored in bays swimming and relaxing. Wander quaint coastal towns or nature parks like Mljet at your own pace. Rent bikes or go hiking to get active and discover more of what Croatia has to offer. Add things like snorkelling equipment or a SUP to your yacht charter to explore bays and the Adriatic marine life. A sailing holiday puts you in control of your experience.

Enjoy Outdoor Bars and Restaurants

Croatia has a plethora of fantastic outdoor bars, lounge bars, clubs and restaurants. Croatia has a typical Mediterranean climate; Spring is warm and peak season boasts temperatures between 27°C – 35°C, this means balmy evenings, perfect for enjoying outdoor venues. Even better, many restaurants have their own docks or mooring buoys. What could be better than pulling up directly in front of the bar or restaurant you plan to spend the evening in? Once again, this limits fuss and exposure to crowds. For most of winter we were trapped inside, with bars or restaurants closed. Being in the atmosphere of a bar or restaurant is something many of us have missed. Watch the sunset with a cocktail in hand, amidst the palm trees and gentle sea breeze, and tell us this isn’t the picture-perfect image of a holiday.

Disconnect and Reconnect

A sailing holiday gives us the perfect environment to disconnect from the stresses of daily life, work, and the world. There is something about being at sea which clears the mind and brings us into the present moment. Being at sea also gives us the opportunity to truly connect with friends and family, and reconnect with nature. When you are sailing, there is nothing else to do and nowhere else to be; simply raise the sails, follow the wind, and enjoy precious moments with family and friends.
